Union of the Phoenix and Divine Dragon

What's it called? Union of the Phoenix and Divine Dragon (in brief, UPDD)

What does it do? This is one of the two light spells that are available for wizards. If Master Woddeley's creates a blue light that follows you around and lightens the place before it goes out, this one summons a moth with similar effects.
Both spells are very similar, the differences being quite minor. The Union is a bit more demanding in skills, gp expenditure, mindspace and components. The compensation tends to be that it is longer lasting, can be cast on someone else, and the light source is less spammy. It also has a very pretty hue, depending on the colour of the nugget when the spell is cast. As I haven't used it in a long time, I don't remember if the moth keeps changing colours, like the nuggets, but I think they do.
Overall, the spell is nice and pretty, but not much use. Woddeley's is more handy, and you can also buy a permalight to avoid day-night problems and have that extra mindspace freed.

Where is it? It counts as an agatean addition to the regular run of spells, so it lies inside the Illusionary Arts grimoire, at the Bes Pelargic Wizard's Guild.

What does it require? A glass nugget, which isn't consumed in the process.

What skills do I need? Channeling, Summoning, Charming

Has it worked? The proper output should read something like this:

You prepare to cast Union of the Phoenix and Divine Dragon on xxx crystal nugget.
Magical, mystical forms appear in your mind.
Grasping the glowing glass nugget, you hold it above you.
You whistle into the wind a calm and peaceful tune.
A (xxx) moth flutters into the area and flits towards you.

Books - Illusionary Arts

A closed shimmering grimoire is on the floor.

Phasing in and out of reality, this lost grimoire sits here calmly passing the time. Odd that it should change colours and transparency. Its spine is decorated with what seems to be an rice-paper dragon and its pages are guilded in platinum specks.

The rice-paper dragon exhales octarine fumes slowly but steadily.

Cherry Blossoms in Bloom

What's it called? Cherry Blossoms in Bloom (in brief, CBB)

What does it do? 'Tis a funny toy spell. It activates your (or the targets) aura, making them bloom in flaming colour. The colour depends on the caster (that is, on which Order you belong to. Circles will have white auras, Last Order guys octarine auras, Seers green auras, and so on...).

Where is it? Friends of the light can catch it inside the Illusionary Arts volume, in the Bes Pelargic Wizard Guild.

What does it require? No components are required, but you do need the focus of an octogram.

What skills do I need? Air, Channeling, Convoking

Has it worked? A correct output should read something like this:

You prepare to cast Cherry Blossoms in Bloom on xxx (target).
Stepping into the centre of the octogram, you focus on the thaumic waves gathering around you.
You start to channel the thaums into your very soul.
You focus on the thaumic energy now stored within you and with one terrifying primal scream, enchant the energies beyond normal capacity!
A surge of satisfaction flows through you/xxx.
You (the target) feel a strange white (or red, blue, brown...) satisfaction envelop you completely!

Cherry Blossoms in Bloom - Causes the target to switch sides.

This is an aura spell which causes sortilege. Cherry Blossoms in Bloom will cause your target (or yourself) to bloom in flaming colour. The colour completely depends on who the caster is.

Calm Embrace of Illusionary Beauty

What's it called? Calm Embrace of Illusionary Beauty (in brief, CEIB)

What does it do? Funny, almost toy-like oriental spell, really. It shoots a firecracker against the target, which explodes into 'a thousand multicoloured butterflies', doing marginal damage and blinding the target for a spell. Might be useful for finishing creatures (specially trolls) nicely, for running away from tough watchmen/guards or (most probable) to avoid Agatean merchants running away in the middle of an offensive spell cast.

Where is it? Its abode is within the covers of the Illusionary Arts grimoire, in the Bes Pelargic Wizard's Guild.

What does it require? quite annoying for the components; otherwise, I might use it more. A firecracker (which is consumed) and a staff (which isn't).

What skills do I need? Conjuring, Charming, Staff, Air

Has it worked? A correct output should read something like this:

You prepare to cast Calm Embrace of Illusionary Beauty on xxx (target).
You hold out the firecracker and conjure the imp within.
Holding the fire cracker out, you ask it to hover in place, right in front of xxx.
You take your staff and hold it at its end and pull it back in a batting fashion.
You take a mighty swing at the fire cracker, and blasting it, cause it to explode into a thousand multicoloured butterflies.
The rainbow of butterflies head towards xxx.

Calm Embrace of Illusionary Beauty – Summon butterflies to beautify a situation.

This spell will summon a swarm of butterflies to attack your target and give them something else to think about. The target will be distracted long enough for a quick wizard to make a silent escape.
